On 19-21 October 2016, SELEC participated at the 4th Interpol Global Trafficking in Human Beings Conference in Lugano, Switzerland, conference which brought together law enforcement personnel (investigators, prosecutors and communicators), representatives of international organizations and NGOs.

The purpose of the conference was to support the understanding of new trends in trafficking in human beings, to promote and enhance international cooperation and to develop strategies to combat human trafficking worldwide.

“International organisations contribute to victim’s identification process on at least three main directions: drafting and compiling guidelines, concept papers and multinational strategies and policies; coordinating raising awareness and international advocacy and providing operational support to law enforcement authorities on concrete activities in the framework of investigations against trafficking in human beings. Acknowledging the impact of every moment of exploitation, reducing the trafficking period of time should be a priority for all the identification mechanisms in place, in a continuous process of improvement and adapting the actions of all the stakeholders” stated the Director for Operations of SELEC, Mr. Romulus Nicolae Ungureanu.
